After seeing all the releases, I feel the best card out there for price and actual usable features is the igame ultra/advance. They’re the only cheap 3X8pin out there. Not sure about the cooling performance with their rather compact heatsink...whether it’s adequet to push beyond 400W but they should work super well underwater.

It’s just the shroud... remove it and it’s the same. Flash a strix bios and they all can clock close to a strix but on 100% fan ... or just slap on a waterblock.

Sadly im very certain my SF750w and even if i upgrade to 850w sfx by coolermaster.. 450w+ gpu powerdraw will cause my psu to shutdown. so I didnt go for the igame.

Little did anyone know, Bone stock reference pcb like galax SG, Colorful battleX,gigabyte eagle that i could confirm all uses 13+3 phase and same amount of caps on the phases.. i believe MSI ventus X3 and the xc3 is the same as well.. These are all the neglected cards that are ditched aside along with zotac.. which you can buy under 3.4k

the advance uses an all metal shroud while the ultra is plastic. which explains the weight difference the heatsink and fans are identical. Same phases too if i remember correctly but even so, given the minimum of 13phase of 50A, that’s 650A of current which is more than capable to go over 400w at 0.9~1.3v.

Perhaps the only difference i could think of is they could be binned differently.

They are identical, just the heatsink/cooler different. With that pricing i think it is definitely one of the best 3080 in terms of price/performance factor.



No bengkang bengkok on the IC components 

Aiyaa, last few days there were plenty on Shopee/Lazada. I think Someone had shared before.

It was from Colorful Malaysia. It's their official account. I also bought the Ultra from them. The shipping was fast as well. Ordered on 23rd and got it on 25th noon.

haha yeah.. i sent one parcel to kch also took almost 3 weeks.

Comeback to KL la then we can yumcha.. altho before I fly off again next year

This area got 3 new malls and alot of yumcha and yumzao places already.

Hmmm I just bought a used 21 days old gigabyte 3070 gaming oc from garage sales.

But can’t get my expected result... I thought can hit over 120 fps in my 1440p ultrawide monitor in mhw.

Hmmmm maybe should try Asus tuf 3080 non oc or zotac trinity

I havent dip into gaming too much recent years, but heard DRM causing issue to game before.
Somemore DRM license not cheap 

Me also but I do know DRM causing issue for some games before, since pirated one no issue, I can only suspect original one have issue is due to DRM.
Ya, really no point, if this is truth then I can only said Crytek is stupid! The games Crysis Remastered already get cracked, this means if the paid was truth, Crytek paid for fun.

I am not support illegal games but I also not support DRM. Haha! It is human made, Human A can made it, for sure Human B can cracked it.
Unless it was made by Alien, then different story.

By the way, the Crysis Remastered I found it so so only, it is better than before but won't give you wow effect. I already put at the maximum setting, but it do run far smoother than original one.

Finally got it. Cant wait to try it with Ryzen 5 1600x for 4K gaming haha. If bottleneck gao2, january need buy 5600x.

Look at the shadows of the vegetation on the ground in front of this ass reboot of Lara Croft, you can basically make out the pixel blocks.

But..but muh supercomputer machine AI learning. Yeah no. This looks even worse in motion. Honestly, we should leave all this gay upscaling to consoles.

I like the idea of using a higher resolution image and downsampling but this upscaling shit is pure snake oil

Oh nice, I will test Fortnite out later. Didn't even know that game has it.

Why people always believe these fake leaks. Remember when the 3070 was gonna dominate 2080ti? How did that turn out?

My last gpu was a mining unit 1080ti and that worked great. We shall see how this psu fares.

I've opened PSU shrouds before, so in terms of getting rid of dust, I don't really think it will be a big problem. Also warranty about 7 years left.

Since bought through Shopee, I definitely will return if got issues. Also warranty with shop in KL and also EVGA so at the very least I can just RMA. If the miner manage to wear out this premium power supply in 2 years I will be shocked.

I second Arctic P12. I changed all my fans in the case to the P14 because it's just so damn good especially for the price. Previously they were Be Quiet Silent Wings 3, which were also good but doesn't generate as much air pressure as the P12.

I just cannot brain people buying rm3-4-5k GPU or parts but cant afford a fkin decent PSU that's like what, rm500 for 850W?
Like those poor posey buggers can buy a conti car with installments but cant afford to buy decent tyres 
literal autism there
Fkin PSUs are dirt cheap these days compared to 5-10 years ago JFC

And even back then I would never advised people to cheap out on the PSU lmao

I always heard people said great on bookshelf speaker 2.0, frank speak I never step into this level yet.
I scared later I cannot stop spending. Haha!

Anyway may I know what kind of bookshelf speaker 2.0 is worth to get.
A reasonable price one, not giant expensive price.
